Adrian Hollis

Adrian Hollis is an old mine hand of the Klondike. Originally from Australia, he has mined the Yukon for placer gold for over two decades.

In season 7, Parker Schnabel comes to Hollis for advice, as he runs his mine with three people. Hollis, uses a conveyor belt system to reduce cost and manpower. The mobile conveyor belt used to clear overburden costs 1/3 that of using a rock truck to shift it. Hollis custom builds ("Frankensteins") conveyor belts mounted atop old excavators replacing the boom and running over the cab with the conveyor belt, while having a hopper on the low end.
